Caretaker

I really wanted to like this game, but I just can't recommend it. The atmosphere, sound design, & overall ambience give the game a very creepy vibe. However, it starts to wear off once you encounter the enemy. I'll admit the first encounter is a little unnerving. Graphics are pretty good, especially the lighting from your flashlight. Caretaker felt like playing an eight dollar tech demo. It feels more like a conceptual idea, rather than a coherent experience. That goes for the story as well, or lack thereof. There's a lot of non objective items to pick up & look at in the game, but serve no purpose other than a couple attempted jump scares, and an achievement. You'll encounter many empty rooms while moving about the map. The game could've really benefited from better objective direction towards the end of the game. It felt like a chore to finish. What frustrated me the most in the game is every time the enemy attacked, your character literally froze in place. You can't run away at that point. It's like being stuck in concrete. Basically wait to be killed & restart the checkpoint. There's also no clear directive on defeating him. Basically draw him out of his safe space. Per the credits Caretaker was developed by one person. It's definitely more than I could ever accomplish, so cheers to that. That being said Caretaker is frustrating to play. You can tell the game strives to be more, but is ultimately held back. Rating: 3/10

6/10 I bought this game to play for a Halloween video on a whim. My previous idea crashed after my power went out and I had to make a backup on the fly when it came back. I bought this on sale for about 7 bucks and played for roughly an hour. Pros: The first half of this I found genuinely spooky. It was offputting and had just enough good audio to get me a riled up. The ambiance was there and it was a decent spooker overall. Although there isn't really a HUD or indicator of what to do, I found myself surprisingly finding my way around correctly due to some decent direction. Cons: Once the actual enemy showed up, I wasn't particularly frightened anymore. Some things just flatout don't make sense, [spoiler]like going deaf from falling ten feet.[/spoiler] If you're not paying attention I can easily see someone getting lost or missing something, and the lack of direction will make itself very apparent. Overall I enjoyed it, but I also came in to it expecting nothing. You'll get roughly an hour out of it, so gauge how much you're willing to pay for a game off of that. It certainly isn't anything amazing, but I've played a lot of utter trash and this certainly is a step above the rest.

Bem a nível daqueles games de 1 produtor. Mal polido, visual bem ruinzinho, história meia boca e os sons dele bem mal feito. Possibilidade de indicar a compra: Apoiar desenvolvedor em inicio ou sair da rotina e testar aqueles games bem simplões mesmo. Prepare sua melhor lente e óculos para enxergar os itens que tem que pegar e descubra a incrível história de um colega que mato todos colegas de trabalho numa antiga fábrica.

I really liked the game! the atmosphere while playing is fantastic !! gloomy environment that has me fully involved. The survival horror has succeeded and feels very good! Although the game is a bit short ... but in any case, a successful horror experience! I want more of that ;)

WHEN YOU WALK INSIDE A BUILDING IT STILL RAINS INSIDE. INSIDE THE BUILDING THERE ARE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS, 5 OF THEM ALL IN THE SAME SPOT. WHY DEVELOPER DID YOU NOT CARE? SIGNED, PERSON WHO PAYED MONEY TO YOU

知り合いに「このゲームオススメ？」と聞かれたら「NO!!!!!」と断言するレベルです。 理由については後述します。ネタバレ含むので購入検討している方は気をつけて。 クリアまでは概ね90分程度。 いいところ ・820円と低価格帯ですがグラフィックは綺麗かなと思います。 わるいところ ・敵の登場までだらだらとマップを探索するだけ。 ・その探索もマップがただ広いだけでなにもない部屋が大半。特にオブジェクトが配置してあるわけでもない。 ・ヒントなし。次にどこに行けばいいかわからない。 ・敵の登場についても前情報なし。いきなり出てきて対応できないまま即死させてくる。まず間違いなく初見殺しされる。 ・何をすれば振り切れるのか説明なし。何度か死んでいるうちによくわからないけど敵を撒けたという感じ。達成感はない。 ・掴まれたら即死であり、トライ＆エラーで面倒なパズルをやっている感覚。 ・インベントリなし。自分が今何を手に入れたのかあとから確認できない。 ・ストーリー後半でホラゲで絶対やっちゃいけないこと([spoiler] 耳が聞こえなくなる。ビックリポイントでも無音。追いかけられてても無音。全然怖くなくなる。 [/spoiler])をやっちゃう ・主人公が何をしたかったのかわからないしオチも意味不明。 トレイラーやスクリーンショット以上のものは出てこないです。 購入するくらいならyoutubeとかで動画見て満足する程度でいいと思います。その820円で何か美味しいもの食べてください。

Not a terrible game, but it's also not a good one.

I gave this game a fair chance ... Sadly , after only 20 minutes of playtime I know what this will be. Another run of the mill "horror"-game to add to the list. The movement is so cluncky I got motion sickness from it. I mean what the F.... The rest is your standard fare, collect keys, items and have a bad guy chasing you ... Nah, not recommended.
